"In the course of the morning, Master Harry rung the bell, — it was surprising how that there boy did carry on, — and said in a sprightly way, 'Cobbs, is there any good walks in the neighborhood?'
"'Yes, sir, there's Love Lane.'
"'Get out with you, Cobbs!' — that was that there mite's expression — 'you're joking.'
"'Begging your pardon, sir, there really is a Love Lane, and a pleasant walk it is; and proud shall I be to show it to yourself and Mrs. Harry Walmers junior.' ["The Runaway Couple," Children's Stories from Dickens, 16]
